"My husband and I were so impressed with the professionalism of Orca Blue from their presentation, all the way through installation. Right away we definitely noticed a difference in our water. Kevin (the owner) came to our house and did an amazing presentation on his product, but also showed a detailed comparison of other water softeners available. Also, the installation was smooth and they made sure to involve us on decisions specific for our home. We highly recommend Orca Blue to anyone looking for a water filtration for their home."

"If you're looking for a water treatment/softener solution, Progressive is the company to go with. They installed solutions in two houses. Rob came out and tested our water explaining every step and result as he went. Dan worked with me to create a solution to cover all my needs and cost parameters. Norbert and Riley, the installers were first class professionals with plumbing and other aspects of the install. Having had both houses completely replumbed recently and fixing horrific plumbing fails from the original house builds and touring several neighbors water treatment solutions installations, apparently there a number of plumbers out there that should not be in the business. These guys did a great job and made sure we were happy with the results! Everyone at the company is knowledgeable, polite and a professional at their role. Would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a water treatment solution."

"These guys are fantastic! John Schaus and the A&E team came out and repaired and serviced my water purification systems so that my home has water flowing at the right pressure, correct PH, and great quality. They also replaced older copper piping in my wellhouse with piping that would not corrode. I would not hesitate to recommend A&E water to anyone! A+++"

"I had a change of plans and do not need a water treatment system. Clear Choice was the only Pro who responded and their response was thorough. If I did not have a change of plans I would have pursued a contract with them."

"They were so expensive. I used them for my hot water heater and I am still paying that off 1 1/2 years later. I can't fathom getting a tub replaced by them. Sorry guys. The first man who I met was super nice, but I can't afford it...especially not after all the trouble, you guys had with obtaining the right water heater..."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

A water softener removes minerals from your drinking water and can make your house water softer. These softeners are designed to extend the lifetime of your plumbing system while also making water safer and more palatable for drinking. Hard water, which is water with a heavy amount of suspended particles, can also cause hair damage, skin irritation, and buildup in your pipes.

Yes. Hard water is what causes scale buildup, and a whole-house filter provides numerous benefits beyond water softening. Any water that enters your home will go through the filter, which cleans up all water that you will use for cooking, bathing, and drinking. A whole-house water filter also blocks harmful particles like heavy metals.

If your water softener repair is fairly straightforward, like a simple filter replacement, then you can probably do it yourself with little risk. However, anything beyond a simple fix should be addressed by someone with extensive plumbing expertise to avoid costly water softener problems, like leaks. 

That said, even simple problems can be complicated to diagnose, particularly if your water softener is attached to a whole-house treatment system. So, unless you feel absolutely certain that the problem is an easy fix that you can take on yourself, it's probably best to hire a plumber to diagnose and fix the problem.

A single shower consumes an average of over 17 gallons, while brushing your teeth with the water running uses up to four unnecessary gallons. Watering the lawn spreads hundreds of gallons of water across the yard each time. Limiting water usage in these areas can significantly cut down your water bill.

No, a water descaler won't descale pipes. The charged water running through the pipes may very slowly dissolve mineral deposits and hold them inside the water, but it's a very gradual process. If your pipes do need descaling, it's much better to get a local plumber to descale your pipes.
